Overnight, this notice was plastered all over the city.
Who is Chu Qingjiu, this question may even be known to a three-year-old child, because this person is the young master of the Chu family among the eight great families today, and the legend is that he is a unique figure in the world, whether it is appearance, character, knowledge or exercises, he is one of the best among the young people in the world, and it is said that after seeing Chu Qingjiu, many women never want to marry someone else, and they never forget that there is only Chu Lang in their hearts.
Now that someone has posted such a notice, everyone naturally can't ignore it, whether they really want to rent it or watch the excitement, everyone went to the place written on the notice for a while.
Changzenso.
Changshanzhuang is in the west of Buzhou City, it is said that it was a merchant family's house in the early years, and then the family declined, it was deserted, and no one lived in it for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be used by people at this time. Everyone was naturally surprised, and then there were more curious people, so in a few days, Changshan Village was crowded with people inside and outside, and even many people specially used charms to rush over directly from thousands of miles away, just to see this strange thing.
What kind of puppet can be worth the price?
And who is playing this trick?
In Changshan Village, in the lobby, people with money and status have already sat in the first place, everyone sits according to this rule, and there are many people who talk to each other, only a young man is wearing a seemingly down-and-out green shirt, and a person stands silently in the corner, which seems to be incompatible with the excitement of this faction.
There are a few small servants who have been temporarily invited to entertain guests in Changshanzhuang, but when asked who the owner of this room is and where the puppet is, they don't know, only that the master here is a young and beautiful girl.
Everyone waited in the hall for a long time, and when the seats were full, and everyone had talked about the same, and when they were about to lose their patience, a little servant came out of it and said that the master was coming.
After a while, a woman walked in.
The woman came in from behind the curtain, and the crowd saw her from behind the heavy veil, and then saw a bare hand lift the veil, and the woman walked out of it slowly.
The little guy was right, she was indeed a young and beautiful girl, but it was still too simple to describe it in just these words. The woman was dressed in red, her black hair was tied back with red silk, and her outfit was much cleaner and more elegant than that of ordinary women, but it was lined with a charm that was rare for ordinary women. The tail of her eyes lightly hooked an arc, and there was a smile in her arrogance, which made it difficult to take a look off her eyes.
She appeared so quietly, but everyone was silent.
It's just that they have never heard of a woman with such a posture before.
When the woman saw everyone in the hall, she also curled the corners of her lips and smiled, "I didn't expect more people to come than I thought." "And there are men and women sitting in the hall, and they don't know what the purpose of these big men is to come here to rent Chu Qingjiu.
Everyone had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw the master coming out, they couldn't wait any longer and asked, "I don't know who the girl is?" What about the puppet you're talking about? ”
"Su Xian, my name." The woman chuckled lightly and glanced at the person who spoke, "It seems that you can't wait, you are very interested in this Chu light wine." ”
"What are you going to borrow back for?" Su Xian looked at the man curiously and smiled, "Singing the wind and making the moon, spending a good night together?" ”
The person who opened her mouth was a teenage girl, Lu Shuang, the little niece of Lu Huayang, the master of the North Gate in the cultivation realm, who had been pampered as a treasure since she was a child, and regardless of the eyes of others, she only met Su Xian's gaze and said, "As long as you can spend the night with Chu Lang, you can do anything." ”
Su Xian laughed when he heard this, and before he could speak, everyone urged again, Su Xian raised his eyebrows to stop everyone's urging, turned back to the curtain and said, "Xiao Chu, come here." ”
Her voice was soft, her tone was as soft as if she were calling a lover, and with her call, a figure also walked out from behind the curtain. The man walked very slowly, and his steps were stiff, but in a few short steps, he walked for a long time. It's just that as soon as he appeared, everyone fell silent, and several people couldn't help but stand up.
That person has a face that is extremely beautiful, regardless of gender, regardless of any boundaries, just simply good-looking, so that people can't help but rise in their hearts with exclusive **. That is indeed the face of Chu Qingjiu, the young master of the Chu family, so graceful and unique.
It's just that for everyone, it is too much to rent this price based on this alone.
"What's so difficult about getting a face like Chu Qingjiu, why do you want this puppet at this price?" It was a female monk of the Xuanyang Sect who spoke, and everyone stood up, and she was the only one who sat down well, and asked Su Xian with some displeasure.
Su Xian seemed to have known that someone had asked this kind of question, and the puppet Xiao Chu was already standing beside her, silently lowering his eyes, without an order, there was no movement at all, just like a puppet. She gently squeezed the puppet's hand, and continued, "Can you make a disguised face exactly like Chu Qingjiu, can you make a person like him?" ”
The monk was stunned and said, "What do you mean?" ”
"Since you're all here, I can't make sense without letting you figure it out." Su Xian let go of the hand holding the puppet, took out a yellow charm from his arms, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Let you see, this is not an ordinary puppet, this is a person who is exactly the same as Chu Qingjiu." ”
After she said this, she dropped the spell on the puppet's back, and the charm turned into a golden ray and jumped into the puppet's body the moment it touched the puppet, and at the same time that the golden mang entered the body, the puppet's originally lowered eyes widened slightly, and the eyes that were originally unfocused and had no luster suddenly came to life, he blinked, as if he looked around with some confusion. Su Xian pointed to the female monk who had spoken before in his ear, and said in a low voice: "That girl has come all the way for you, you should go and have a good chat with her." ”
The puppet looked in the direction that Su Xian pointed, and while touching the female monk's gaze, his eyebrows were slightly relaxed, and he smiled lightly, and bowed lightly to the woman: "Girl." ”
The nun sat upright, and even looked a little unnatural at this smile, she stiffened, and it took a long time for her to remember to move, and she coughed lightly: "My name is Bai Jing." ”
"Miss Bai Jing, forgive me for being slacking off on the wine." When the puppet first appeared, it was still stiff like a marionette, but at this time it was no different from ordinary people, he raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly at Bai Xun, and then approached her again, stretched out his hand to her and said, "The girl came from afar, I wonder if I can let Qingjiu take you to the courtyard?" ”
Bai Jing was stunned for a moment, and there was a hint of blush on her originally pale face, and she said in a low voice: "Okay." As she spoke, she was about to hold the puppet's outstretched hand, but before she could touch it, she saw that Su Xian had appeared in front of her at some point, and she seemed to be smiling and blocked between the two and said, "If you touch it again, you will have to give money." ”
Bai Jing's gaze passed through Su Xian, fell on the soft-looking puppet behind him, gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it fifty thousand taels of silver, I'll give it." ”
"Wait." Just when Bai Jing was about to pay for it, Lu Shuang from before also stood up, she came to the two of them with her hands in her hands, and said with a sneer: "So many people want it, you want to borrow 50,000 taels of silver?" ”
Lu Shuang said this, and suddenly turned back to Su Xian and said, "I will pay one million taels, you puppet, I bought it." ”
Su Xian glanced at Lu Shuang, and the smile in her eyes did not decrease, but before she could speak, someone on the other side stood up: "Three million taels." ”
The people here don't seem to be small, but in a moment, someone added the price, and the original good lease turned out to be the auction site, Su Xian looked at this scene with a smile, but saw that the puppet behind him took out a paper fan at some point, and shook his head lightly and persuaded: "Everyone, please don't hurt the harmony for the light wine, there is something to ......say."
"Shut up." Su Xian glanced back at the puppet, and the puppet immediately stopped and restored his former appearance.
Su Xian looked at the puppet with a smile, and said in his heart that this thing is too spiritual and not good, and it is easy to be unable to contain it.
She looked at the appearance of everyone arguing over this puppet again, and felt that this Chu Qingjiu was really a complete disaster, and I am afraid that there are few men in the world who have such skills.
However, just as the others were arguing, a clear laughter came into Su Xian's ears.
The person who laughed was a young man who had been standing in the corner of the hall, dressed in shabby clothes, and looked completely different from a room of rich and powerful people, Su Xian didn't know who he was, but he intuitively felt that he didn't come to rent this puppet.
"What are you laughing at?" Su Xian asked suddenly.
When everyone heard Su Xian speak, they fell silent again, and a room of people followed Su Xian's gaze towards the shabby man.
The smile on the man's face decreased slightly, he looked delicate, and seemed to be very favorable, and when he saw everyone looking at him, he shook his head innocently and said, "I just think that you puppet is very interesting." ”
"Huh?" Su Xian's heart moved slightly, and he asked again, "What's interesting?" ”
The man glanced at the puppet behind Su Xian, and said thoughtfully: "On its body, there is a wisp of immortal soul. ”
Su Xian's eyes narrowed slightly, but he suddenly laughed again: "Who are you?" ”
The man also laughed with her, smiling innocently and harmlessly: "It's not a little stormy outside, and I'm passing through here, just to come in to take shelter from the wind and rain." ”
"Really?" Su Xian replied casually, she was about to ask again, but suddenly saw a small guy outside running in, a few steps in front of her, and said in a hurried voice: "Girl, it's not good...... That...... The real Prince Chu is here! ”
All of a sudden, everyone was shocked.
